About this project

Jibu’s mission is to provide profitable business opportunities to young entrepreneurs with drinking water as their core business in urban and peri-urban areas of Sub-Saharan Africa. Jibu's innovation provides access to a holistic array of services including employment and access to safe drinking water. Jibu uses business format franchising to create networks of locally-owned, well-equipped and trained social franchises that deliver safe water to their communities. The local franchises purify water, package it in reusable tap bottles, and distribute it via a hub-and-spoke model to customers. Jibu is taking proactive steps to reduce carbon emissions and promote responsible business practices. Through our core mission of providing households with access to safe drinking water, we are making a tangible difference in the fight against climate change. By offering an alternative to traditional water purification methods, such as boiling water using charcoal or firewood, we are helping to minimize carbon emissions and reduce the strain on our environment. Through our innovative approach, we provide affordable, clean water to households across Rwanda. By doing so, we enable families to transition away from the carbon-intensive practices of using charcoal or firewood for water purification. This shift not only ensures access to safe drinking water but also contributes significantly to reducing the carbon footprint in the region
